After thirty years at the forefront of Audi's small executive gasoline car lineup, the A4 is being discontinued. The A5, previously reserved for style-forward coupes, is now Audi's gasoline sedan (or, liftback) for the world's middle managers. Why is the A4 gone? It is not quite dead; Audi's even-numbered cars will be electric, and its odd-numbered cars will still use internal combustion engines to get around.
The new A5 comes with a fresh look, updated technology, and a pair of perky internal combustion engines that Audi hopes will keep drivers happy no matter their budget. The base model has a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that sends 268 horsepower to all four wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Variable turbine geometry for the turbocharger increases the engine’s efficiency—though fuel economy figures are to be determined.
For those with a penchant for performance, the S5 model features a turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 engine, delivering 362 horsepower to all four wheels through the same seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. It is the first time Audi has used this transmission in an S5. The Quattro all-wheel-drive system is equipped with a Quattro sport differential with torque vectoring.
Audi has invested extensive detail work on the A5 and S5’s suspension and steering. Buyers can opt for adaptive dampers that allow adjustment of the ride.
In the United States, the A5 and S5 will be available only in a sedan body style. However, outside the United States, there will be an Avant wagon version of each, but no plans for a coupe or convertible. This marks the first of many cars to use Audi’s new Premium Platform Combustion architecture, which supports front- or all-wheel drive and accommodates gasoline or hybrid powertrains.
The Audi A5 is larger but not quite as sleek as the old A5 Sportback. A wide grille is flanked by massive vents in the front, while the rear features real tailpipes. With new exterior styling comes new exterior technology, including LED daytime running lights and second-generation OLEDs for the rear.
Inside, the A5 boasts a human-centric design, a Digital Stage with two MMI infotainment displays, Material Driven Design for space and comfort, and Visual Clarity for an easy-to-use layout.
The A5 family is expected to arrive in the United States in the spring or summer of 2025. Pricing, economy figures, options packages, and trim details for the United States will be revealed soon.
